i dont know how you could recalibrate the speedo without changing the speedo drive gear with one with a different ratio.but i doubt anybody sells different ratio speedo drives anyway.
genuine renault bearings seem pretty good quality.a half decent mechanic with a press should be able to fit it properley.people mainly damage bearings by trying to hammer them in or pressing them in on the piss.
was the bearing noisy before it collasped?very strange it would just collaspe without there being any warning signs first.they normally collapse due to being excessivly worn or incorrectly fitted.
the main squeaks we used to have on them were the clutch plate or the front pipe to manifold joint.we used to drop the front pipe down,mix some copper grease and exhaust paste together,put it on the front pipe to manifold joint and refit the front pipe.cant think of anything obvious from the rear.
electrical agents can sell you the bushes etc.there is a lucas electrical store in chesterfield where i last got some from.you can get bushes etc for certain alternator from renault.
you would have to weld in a reducer section and you need a different flange.you might as well buy a proper exhaust instead of messing around trying to get that one to fit.
the indicators slot into the headlight housing and are held in place by a spring/ring pull idea.have a look behind the headlight and youll see the ring on the end of the spring sitting in a groove in the headlight housing.unclip this and slide the indicator out.
ON THE NORMAL 16V ENGINES THERE IS A BOX HELD IN PLACE BY A RUBBER BAND THAT HAS THE INTAKE PIPE ON 1 END AND ATTACHES TO THE AIRFILTER HOUSING AT THE OTHER.THIS IS JUST A SILENCER,PULL IT OFF AND YOU WILL HEAR WHAT I MEAN IF YOU GO FOR A BEZ AROUND.THIS IS ONLY ON THE NEW NORMAL 16V ENGINES NOT...
MAKE SURE YOU DRILL IT BEFORE THE FILTER SO THE AIR STILL GETS FILTERED.ON THE NEW 16V ENGINES(NOT 172) JUST REMOVE THE SILENCER BOX BEFORE THE AIRFILTER BOX AND REPLACE IT WITH IT WITH A PEICE OF PIPE.YOU WONT GAIN ANYTHING BUT YOULL GET THE NOISE.
THE DIAGNOSTIC CARDS WE USE ON THE XR25 ARE THE SAME FOR THE CLIO AND THE 19 SO THAT SHOULDNT BRING UP ANY FAULTS.TAKE A LOOK AT THE ECU AND SEE IF ITS GOT WATER CONTAMINATION.
